Could've been the whiskey, might've been the gin Could've been the three or four six packs I don't know but look at the mess I'm in My head is like a football, I think I'm gonna die Tell me, me oh, me oh, my, wasn't that a party? Someone took a grapefruit, wore it like a hat I saw someone under my kitchen table Talking to my old Tom Cat They were talking about hockey, the cat was talking back Along about then, everything went black, wasn't that a party? I'm sure it's just my memory Playing tricks on me But I think, I saw my buddy Cutting down my neighbor's tree It could've been the whiskey, might've been the gin It could've been the three or four six packs I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in My head is like a football, I think I'm gonna die Tell me, me oh, me oh, my, wasn't that a party? Billy, Sue and Tommy Well, they went a little far They were sittin' in my back yard, blowing on a siren
From somebody's police car So you see, Your Honor, it was all in fun The little bitty track meet down on Main Street Was just to see if the cops could run Well, they run us in to see you in an alcoholic haze I sure can use those thirty days to recover from the party Could've been the whiskey, might've been the gin Could've been the three or four six packs I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in My head is like a football, I think I'm going to die Tell me, me oh, me oh, my, wasn't that a party? It could've been the whiskey, might've been the gin It could've been the three or four six packs I don't know, but look at the mess I'm in My head is like a football, I think I'm gonna die Tell me, me oh, me oh, my, wasn't that a party? Wasn't that a party? Wasn't that a party? Wasn't that a party? Wasn't that a party?
